"Libraries are not made, they grow"--Augustine Birrell......."If we knew what we were doing, it wouldn't be called research"--Albert Einstein.....Just say "know" to books.....Leave your eyeprints all over our books......Borrow and return--Recycle reading.....A book in the hand is worth two on the shelf......"A library is not a luxury but one of the necessities of life--Henry Ward Beecher

Description of Project:This was a collaborative project between Ms. Frachetti, teacher-librarian and 3rd-4th grade teachers: Ms. Beckwith, Mrs. Gasamis, Mrs. Markson, and Mrs. O'Grady with assistance from Ms. Miller (Mrs. Gasamis's long-term sub). Students were asked to research a famous person or landmark in Colorado history. Students then wrote an introduction to their person/landmark in the first person and created a podcast using the Blabberize podcasting tool. These were then uploaded to a Glogster (online, interactive poster) along with appropriate photos and/or slideshows, text boxes and a link to a significant event that happened in history during their lifetime or when the landmark site was established.
